Democrats in the House of Representatives will move this week to get the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to score HR 676 – the bill that will create a single payer national health insurance system.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) has already promised an up or down vote on a single payer bill sponsored by Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-New York).

Dozens of advocates for national health care staged a “flash mob” action at the opening of a new Whole Foods store on the Upper West Side of Manhattan last Thursday.

The group was protesting the assertion by Whole Foods CEO, John Mackey, that health care is not a right in America.

The action continued a national wave of protests against the health food giant.
